Our bayonet reformer SMR-b combines the novel properties of convection and radiant heat transfer in one steam reformer.

The development and introduction of the SMR-b is a result of TOPSOE™’s continuous striving towards more energy efficient ways of producing hydrogen by steam reforming of hydrocarbon feed stocks.

• SMR-b consists of bayonet reformer tubes in a furnace box heated by radiant wall burners
• SMR-b provides hydrogen production with minimum hydrocarbon consumption and low steam export
• SMR-b is environmental friendly with low fuel consumption, low NOx and CO₂ emissions
• Improved heat utilization in the SMR-b, significantly reduces the amount of burners, while maintaining the unique possibility of adjusting the tube temperature profile
• SMR-b operates at high heat fluxes providing capital cost savings for medium to large hydrogen plants
